GENERAL INFORMATION- Planet Name: Albion
- Demonym: Albionese
- Region: Wild Space
- System Name: Aldrex
- System Features:
- Location: Empty hex to the right of Smarteel
- Major Imports: Due to the nature of their homeworld, the people of Albion have made extensive trade deals with other nearby worlds to bring in vast quantities of food. Nearly a third of the entire planets food supply is sourced from other worlds, and is a key backbone of the planetary economy.
- Major Exports: The primary export for Albion is the Spire Stone, the synthetic building material used in ancient times to craft the Spires of their world. It is a strong and reliable building material, and combined with its mending properties it is a valued commodity in buildings on many worlds near Albion.
- Unexploited Resources:
- Gravity: Standard
- Climate: Frozen
- Primary Terrain: Tundra's, Snow Fields, Mountains
- Atmosphere: Type 1
- Capital City: Spire Camelyn
- Planetary Features: The most striking feature of Albion are the great Spires that dot the landscape of the world. Long ago, the human settlers of Albion were driven to the brink of extinction by rapidly changing elements and creatures that lurked in the dark corners of their homeworld. Near the brink of no return, Albion legend tells of a race of beings they call the Builders who came to their aid. They constructed the Spires across Albion and ushered their people inside. Each Spire is a architectural marvel in its own right, with no two Spires being the same. Ranging from five kilometers to nearly twenty in height, and anywhere from two kilometers to ten across, these black stone constructs dominate the landscape around them, and serve as permanent bastions of civilization.
Beyond the Spires, the most distinguishable feature of Albion are the vast underground caverns that cover most of the northern hemisphere of the world. These caverns can be barely large enough for a single human to stand upright within, or large enough to house spaceborne warships. The great beasts and monsters that lurk across Albion claim these caverns as their home, and only emerge to the surface of the world when they sense prey entering their territories. Speculation by many within the Spires think that the Builders may have once built their civilization within the cavern system, but all attempts at exploration have ended catastrophically, with very few explorers ever returning. - Force Nexus (Optional): [ If you wish to add a Force nexus (light, neutral, or dark), you are required to justify it through your submission and history. ]
Intent: [ Provide the reasoning and motive for this force nexus. A request for a force nexus may be denied on this premise alone. ]
Nexus Name: Wellspring of Light - Nexus Alignment: Light
- Size: Medium
- Strength: Strong
- Accessibility: The Wellspring of Light sits deep under the ice and snow fields of Albion's northern hemisphere, kilometers underground through a vast and expansive cavern system. No detailed records or maps have ever been created to lead to the Wellspring, and its very existence is only theoretical in the minds of Albion's Scholars. To even make an attempt to locate the Wellspring, one would have to fight their way through hordes of dark side corrupted creatures, a task no one has yet to successfully accomplish on Albion.
